From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Miss República Dominicana is a pageant where women ranging in age from 18-28 each represent one of the many Dominican provinces, cities, and communities. The woman crowned most beautiful will move on to other pageants, specifically Miss Universe. The new Miss Dominican Republic Universe 2009 is Genevet Gutiérrez representing Samaná Province.
From 1956-2002, the pageant would start by the opening with dresses. Then they would use their swimsuits. In 1972, after the swimsuits they would use the Provincial Costumes. Then they would use the same dresses they used for the opening. They would pick the semi-finalist. The semi finalist would show the evening. Then they would pick the quarter-finalist. The quarter-finalist would be asked question. Sometimes there were small entries so semi finalist would show the evening and would be asked question at the same time. They would pick 5 finalists and crown and sashed the Misses Dominican Republic and sashed the runner-ups.
Since 2006, the pageant has made smaller pageants. Those pageants are the Provincial Pageants where contestants enter to represent the province in Miss Dominican Republic Universe. In 2007, for Miss Dominican Republic Universe 2008 only 9 entered because only 9 Provincial pageants had been made. For Miss Dominican Republic Universe 2009, 34 pageants were scheduled to be for April.
In the pageant in 1995, candidates representing Cities started entering. Before municipalities were represented, but only 1 to 3 could enter representing any municipality. They had represented the Province and the dependencies they were born in. The candidates that represented the Dominican Communities had to be born in the Country.
The original pageant was in 1928 were they would crown a delagte from a province. It canceled in 1930 when Trujillo became leader. Her daughter convinced him to restart the pagean in 1952. It restarted but when his daughter turned 18 she could enter. In 1955 she won the pageant. Every one thought that she won because she was daugter of the President.
